It kind of surprised me and if I’m honest I was a little disappointed when it didn’t happen. Side note: Not changing my diet and allowing freedom with food while quitting drinking served me greatly.
People ask all the time, “Did you lose weight?”, and I cringe a little inside every time they do. Maybe a tad bit out of embarrassment but mostly because losing weight would have been the least impactful thing that happened when I quit regularly drinking.
Also I hate that question comes 100% of the time from women. But that’s a rant against the patriarchy for another day.
I didn’t lose weight AND gained so much more.
Freedom. Confidence. Independence.
That felt better than seeing any number drop on the scale.
Quitting to lose weight isn’t a bad thing but it’s not the only thing.
What would it be worth to gain so much when you quit drinking?
